    To Pull or Not to Pull... That is the question...

    Alright, we want to add a RTS (Ready to Ship) Winter Dream but need a bit of input from potential buyers. The base Winter Dream has no panel pulls but most folks add the 4 panel pulls to their order. If we have a Winter Dream RTS would you prefer it to have panel pulls or no panel pulls, this will impact pricing...
    Happy Hangin'

    I like the pull outs to secure the doors when I am not using them

    Panel pulls all the way baby so I can use the pull out poles.

    Have a Winter Dream without pulls and never missed them. Do have a center pole mod though.

    None of my tarps have pullouts. 99% of the time I am in porch mode even in winter. My current winter tarp is over 5 years old and I bought it used from the FS forum I probably should consider buying a new one this season.

    Pulls add weight, and another spot for leakage(although not likely). You can just clip the doors on same sides to each other to get them out of the way. I also use porch mode (flying V ) most of the time.

    Flexibility vs cost and weight? If only a minor uptick in cost, I would include the pull-outs.

    Last time I purchased a tarp, a few years back, one of the things that pushed me off the fence was that it was a holiday special and included a number of features such as pull outs. Made a difference in my purchase process, I executed right then and there instead of delaying and 'thinking' about it some more. So yes, I think it would help sales and is a feature I would want on my tarp.

    I would have to say pull-outs. You don't have to use them. Why not make a few of each and see where it goes. You can always add them if the ones with them sell out faster.

    We hang double with a spreader bar and use poles with our pulls. Provides much more clearance inside.
